Co-working – Uncommon Connections and Serendipity

My life has changed in many fortunate ways due to serendipity; each day I look forward to stumbling across something useful in an unexpected place.

Voted as one of the hardest English words to translate I consulted Wikipedia.

Serendipity means a “happy accident” or “pleasant surprise”; specifically, the accident of finding something good or useful while not specifically searching for it.

My experience is that serendipity increases when you stay open to things coming together in uncommon ways.

Each day at berrins I witness how co-working enables people to make uncommon connections, and it’s a joy to watch how people unlock moments of serendipity; evolving their collective knowledge and solve problems in the process.

The world needs more uncommon connections…..
